Her followers were quick to point out his uncanny resemblance to the late popstar and the image went viral. Of course, the Twitter comedians got in on the action with some puns on MJ’s mst famous lyrics.

One user asked: “Does he rock with you all night?”, while another tweeted: “So Billie Jean was pregnant with Michaels son?!”

While Twitter busied itself debating whether or not Michael was still alive, a few people in the comments seemed to know the man wasn't really Lourdes' boyfriend.

According to Daily Mail, Lourdes herself actually had no idea who the man was. She was just sharing a photo she’d found online with her friends.

“Unfortunately he's not actually my man. I found his picture on Twitter,” she confessed to the site. “The post was just a joke between my friends and me. I posted the picture to be funny and I didn't think so many people would see it and believe it.”

All the attention has helped dig up the Michael lookalike’s real identity.

The man in the picture is actually Sergio Cortes, a Spanish musician who’s obviously very aware of his resemblance to the late superstar – he travels the world as a Michael Jackson impersonator, making a living mimicking his doppelgangers voice and dance moves.
